Cornerstone Preparatory School

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I enroll?
  • Enrollment occurs after a student has applied and been accepted to the school. Applications for enrollment are available to online only. All application documents, application fees, testing, and family interview must be on file before a student can begin school. Once all items are received, the admissions committee will review the information and determine eligibility, and the family will receive a letter of admission or denial.
• How much does it cost?

  • Tuition for the 2024-2025 school year is $4,500 with discounts for enrolling multiple children. See the website tuition page for more details.

    Tuition payments do not encompass the cost of uniforms, school supplies, enrichment or lab fees, school athletic fees, lunches, snacks, transportation, field trips, yearbook, service projects or other expenses incurred in the ordinary course of the student’s activities at CornerStone Prep.

  • We are dually accredited through ACSI and Cognia (formerly AdvancEd).
• What textbooks do you use?

• Do you teach Common Core?
  • Our curriculum is similar to national and state standards, with all content being taught from a biblical worldview.
• Do you participate in state testing?
  • No, but we do complete standardized testing in the spring of each year.
• How do you teach “the faith”?
  • We teach all content from a biblical worldview focusing on creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. (No doctrine is taught because we are interdenominational.)

  • Students should bring their lunch each day. We do not prepare lunches on-site. Catering options may be offered on occasion, and students may opt to order or bring their lunch on those days.
• Do you have chapel? Can visitors attend?
  • We have weekly chapel services on Friday mornings with alternating grade levels each week. Weeks when students are not in chapel, they participate in small groups discussing biblical topics and developing Christ-like character.
  • Guests are welcome to attend chapel but must register in the front office upon arrival.
• Do you offer sports?
  • We are members of KHSAA, and we have a handful of sports offerings. Offerings have included golf, archery, and trap at the middle and high school level, with more options being added based on student interest. We also encourage students to participate in local community, recreation, and travel teams.
